But I do enjoy helping others learn how to dive better and safer. I'm about two hours from you, and would not mind traveling to meet you. Maybe we could get you out of the pool and into something a little deeper.

Actualy, if you don't mind driving about two hours, I have a dive trip set up on the 8th & 9th of September that would be perfect for you. I am getting some dive buddies together to work on saftey and dive techniques. We will be meeting at Ginnie Springs on the 8th. It is about a two hour drive up I-75 for you just out side of High Springs. There are 7 springs there. They very in depth from 12ft to 40ft. If you have a wetsuit, bring it, the water is 72 degrees. We will be camping there that night. On the 9th we will drive about 1/2 an hour to Troy Springs State Park. Troy is wide open and is about 60ft to 70ft, depending on the water level. At troy I will have a dive line set up from a float to the bottom. If you decide to join us, I can show you how to kick in you dive reflex ,do longer, deeper and safer dives WITH A BUDDY. It will be alot of fun.

If you can't make it, I understand and we can set something up some other time. By the way, just so that I know were your at on your diving, what are your personal best. Mine are as follows:

PB Static : 3 min. 30 sec.
PB Depth : 99 Feet / 30 meters (PFI course, hit plate)
Average depth : 50-70 ft
Average time : 0:45 - 1:20

Talk to you soon,
Brian
